It might sound silly, but I mean it: The easiest and most potent way for Europe to hurt Trump this year is to once again use its cultural soft power and to threaten a boycott of the World Cup. It would become a completely meaningless event and would hurt him where he is most vulnerable - his vanity.

Why does the Iranian regime want this permanent break from the global internet? Why has the Israeli regime continued to ban international media from access to Gaza? Oh yes, because Khamenei and Netanyahu both desire to hide their crimes.
Iran plans permanent break from global internet, say activists
Report claims unrestricted online access will be a ‘government privilege’, limited to individuals vetted by regime

LLMs promised to *increase* knowledge. What actually happens is the opposite. We cannot trust any information any more. Our beliefs become harder to justify & truth harder to establish. So we end up with LLMs destroying trust in knowledge - a serious threat to modern society & the good life.
This Maccabi Tel Aviv/policing/AI story is wild!

Often it’s not the use of AI, per se, that’s the problem.

It’s the uncritical acceptance of the stuff it churns out.

YOU HAVE TO FACT CHECK AGAINST ORIGINAL SOURCES.

on a personal level, i feel a great deal of “what did you think would happen” about rogan, but, generally, peeling the idiot chud demo away from this admin and ICE specifically would basically be the end of them
joe rogan is a very dumb guy, that very dumb guys are realizing that ICE is evil is good.

ICE totaled this car, abducted a woman, and then left it in the middle of Snelling Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the Twin Cities.

This isn’t law and order, this state sanctioned terrorism. It’s fucking disgusting.

Not to mention the signs it sends to Putin and Xi
People will say Greenland and Venezuela isn't the same, but it really is.

The USA has no claim to either.
Neither have committed any crime against the USA.
They both have Oil/Minerals the US wants.
They are both illegally threatened with invasion or have been.

It is the same.

Remember when a guy lost an election and then spent months making wild, baseless claims that it was stolen, leveraging the personality cult he’d built to try to get people to reject the results? And then thousands of his supporters rioted, injuring hundreds of cops?

Whatever happened to that guy?
